The folks in North Dakota are doing great work breaking from the failed incremental “pro-life” strategies of the past and unsheathing the Word of God through “Personhood.” Declaring, as a state, that children in the womb are “persons” opens the door, under color of the law, to protect all preborn children from conception to birth and beyond. It also opens the door for rescuing children being led away to the slaughter if the last remaining abortion mill in North Dakota should dare continue doing abortions.

Note from Dr. Pat McEwen, February 11, 2013
North Dakota has passed a no exceptions Personhood Bill in the ND State Senate – The ND House will still have to vote on their version but the House is more prolife than the Senate. The following is from our friend Dan Becker, Field Rep for Personhood USA and President of Georgia Right to Life. Dan perfected his model of working with State legislators in Georgia to be truly pro-life not just pro-some life.
“ALL passed with NO exceptions! In fact last year’s Personhood Bill HB 1450 did have a Rape & Incest exception but we defeated 4 longtime Senators in the primary and nobody was willing to offer the exceptions again this year. We direct mailed every voter in their district with a hard-hitting mail piece. The ND Senate Majority Leader was reported to admit it scared the rest of the Senators. This is what I have been saying . . . the prolife movement needs to establish the standard and require all politicians to acknowledge.”
The Sword of the Spirit has been unsheathed in North Dakota and God is watching over His Word to perform it. This was accomplished by changing the hearts of the legislators. Now the battle for North Dakota is on. Changing the hearts of the legislators is one step BUT we must change the hearts of the people of North Dakota or we will see delays and non -enforcement and all other tricks of the pro death agenda. This change takes place, not in the halls of the legislature, but on the streets, in the market place and right at the gates of hell. That is what we do best! Will North Dakota be a State of Refuge? We are calling to gather Jesus’ gentle warriors in October, 2013, to storm the gates of hell – see you there.
Here is what Gualberto Garcia Jones, Legal Counsel, Personhood USA, had to say about the ND senate victory:
North Dakota Takes A Major Step Toward History
Justice delayed is justice denied.
That pithy summary of all we hold to be true at Personhood USA has become our rallying cry. As the largest personhood organization in America, we have carried the fight to end abortion to all fifty states, and around the world. Our rally cry has particularly caught on in North Dakota where the state Senate has just passed a constitutional amendment to protect all life and a ban on abortion!
Several weeks ago North Dakota lawmakers introduced SB 2302, a bill that would establish that children in the embryonic stage must be treated ethically and with dignity. Today that bill passed and is headed to a vote in the North Dakota House of Representatives. While this is great news, it has set up a major battle in the state as the corrupt abortion industry and their allies in the unregulated fertility industry have let loose a cannonade of lies to intimidate pro-life legislators.
This is a battle that we welcome, and we wear the attacks from the abortion industry and their allies in North Dakota as a badge of honor! The pro-lifers in North Dakota supported by Personhood North Dakota have reshaped the public perception of abortion and elevated the sanctity of life.
Win or lose, one thing that you can be sure of is that we will continue to fight to put an end to abortion in the FlickertailState once and for all! As Winston Churchill said about Great Britain’s struggle against the Nazi’s in World War II, we say about the fight against the culture of death.:
“We shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills; we shall never surrender, and even if, which I do not for a moment believe, this island or a large part of it were subjugated and starving, then our Empire beyond the seas, armed and guarded by the British Fleet, would carry on the struggle, until, in Gods good time, the New World, with all its power and might, steps forth to the rescue and the liberation of the old.”
We need all hands on deck in North Dakota. The pro-aborts will unleash a host of lies in television ads two weeks before the election. All they have to do is sew seeds of doubt. We have to prepare the people with the truth so they’ll recognized the lies for what they are. This effort has to start now.
